Full, Half and Quarter Turns
A game of Statue in the school ground shows us full turns, half turns and quarter turns, and how smaller turns join together to make bigger ones.
- A full turn brings you back to the place you started from.

From Turns to Angles
Pragya turns one straw against another and the gap between them becomes an angle. We name acute, right, obtuse and straight angles, and fold a paper tool.
- A quarter turn makes a right angle, like the corner of a book.
- An angle smaller than a right angle is called acute.
- An angle between a quarter turn and a half turn is called obtuse.

Clockwise and Anti-clockwise
Turns have a direction as well as a size. We learn the words clockwise and anti-clockwise, and work out which way we face after a number of right angles.
- Clockwise is the way the hands of a clock move.
- Anti-clockwise is the opposite way round.
- Going clockwise the directions run North, East, South, West.
